    These things have a habbit of being a symbiont circle...like negociating in bussiness shaun...its the art of everyone settling on a plan,system,agreement....where everyone leaves feeling they have the biggest slice of the pie.

    Vic club have another sponsor...potential for some TV coverage [potential for other sponsors to get TV coverage]...
    Potential for said sponsor to like what they are doing..increase sponsorship...how is this a bad thing??

    and answer me one thing? is LG's money better spent sponsoring racing....or getting advertising in the media??

    Yes they do...no doubt about it.

    And to be fair...if you had extended your self to put the effort into something you thought would benifit the sport and was critisied about it...you would reply in similar fashion...as you have done in the past...and for totally good reason too.

    I think people should give this idea a fair go. the 600 riders are NOT being hard done by...it does not effect them...as it does NOT effect other classes...so whats the big deal??

    Your right...but if you lack logic...expect to be pick on.

    Wow. That was cool.

    See you all on the grid eh?

    Eddie; you done good by me. Superbikes needs a bit of a push ATM and this may do it. Worth a crack, eh?

    Thumbs up

    As a likely tail-end clubbie racer, but one who is eligible to race in F2 and prossibly F1 "IF" I was quick enough.... good on LG and VMCC for this initiative! I wish you all well and hope that something good comes of it for all domestic racing.

    Now this sounds like a good idea

    ps i think an extra class will be fantastic, sometimes racing twice in one day just isn't enough

    I plan to run my post classic in formula 1 but would stand down if i have knocked out a f1 bike in qualifying giving them the chance to run from rear of grid before they got pushed into clubmans.An extra race for those who dont have more than two races to run is a good idea and may incourage more guys to buy 1000cc bikes who have been discouraged by only 2 races.
    Is this not the reason why they are doing this.If people want to run 600s in 4 races and then the 5th also are not getting a little greedy for track time.If they are so much in need of more track time on the day they could buy a budget second bike and run that in another class.

    This is unreal..

    Hey guys heres an idea, lets have some more racing.. NOOOO BOO FUCKIN HOOO WHAT ABOUT MEEEE Bitch Bitch Bitch.

    A company is giving money to the sport.. Who gives a rats cock if they want their stickers pasted around, the walls around the tracks are lined with them already. Also there is the chance FOR CLUB RACING TO BE ON TV, what better way to attract more entries..

    Another thing, the un-initiated heathens amongst us with not enthusiasm for racing don't want to see slow bikes, its the fast machines that draw crowds, crowds bring money, etc etc.

    Cheers LG !

    I just want to say thanks to LG but also VMCC, the club is run by a bunch of volunteers that truly bust their balls for us to all go racing. Getting backing of major companies like LG is great for the sport, even if it means some of the other classes that aren't supported by them were to take a small hit, this is what the sport needs and it is worth the compromise to keep the people laying down the green stuff happy. In this case none of the classes are taking a hit so it's a win win situation. If we can accommodate and show return to LG (which will be difficult all things given) then there is a much higher chance that other major companies will see the value in supporting motorcycle racing which in turn equals more money, which equals more people, competitors and the works. Rome wasn't built in a day but I think if we can encourage more major sponsors to support motorcycle racing we will be laying foundations to build a much greater racing scene than what we are currently seeing.

    And I would love to be out there on a superbike, but I better learn to race a 600 first!

    Cheers,

    -Glen

    I disagree mate. The extra race hasn't cost a bean yet riders have been encouraged to race in a class that is dying. That has to be a good thing and the LG support just makes it that much better again. Surely you'd be happy to see our young riders with a more viable competitive Superbike class to race in in the future?

    For the record, I have got fuck all money and also made a submission to VMCC so it ain't all about LG$$$.

    Have you even seen Jay Lawrence, Choppa, Sam Smith, Brian Wood or Johnny Burkhart in full flight on a 600? Have you seen their times? To say any bloke on a thou who can't beat those guys should consider another class is just plain ignorant. It wasn't that long ago I can recall Craig Shirriffs rocking up to Manfeild on a 600 and smoking the whole F1 field, as did Jay Lawrence who followed him home. Go and have a look at the time sheets mate, and rethink your suggestion.

    Based on your "logic" very 600 rider who can't beat Glen Williams or Jason Easton around Manfeild should consider F3? And every F3 rider beaten by Avalon Biddle should consider riding Streetstock? Get real, it's club racing mate, you choose a bike or class that appeals to you and if you can qualify you race in it, simple as that. Not all of us have access to tuition, tracks, sponsored rides, time to practice, time off work, started while we are still in nappies etc etc. This may be a revelation but some of us are just in with the aim of having fun, not becoming the next Andrew Stroud. Some of us might only make it to 2 race meetings a year with the odd trackday, vs 15 race meetings and every track day on the calendar for someone else. Some of us may be relatively slow, some of us may be world class fast but it's club racing, not the Nat's, so as long as we're all having fun it's all good and whoever happens to be fastest is virtually irrelevant.
